'Brutal authoritarianism': Something 'seriously wrong' with Victoria Police

Something is "seriously wrong" with Victoria Police, says Sky News host Andrew Bolt.

Mr Bolt said the organisation has now "finally apologised" to Rebel News journalist Avi Yemini over a series of wrongful arrests covering protests in 2020 and 2021.

"The apology reads 'On each occasion, Mr. Yemini was wrongly arrested and detained by members of Victoria Police while reporting for Rebel News. Victoria Police sincerely apologises for the hurt and embarrassment suffered by Mr Yemini'," Mr Bolt said.

"Wrongly arresting a reporter not once but three times?

"What is going on – and why is the media so uninterested in what seems to me another example of the brutal authoritarianism of the Victorian Labor government."

Mr Bolt discussed the issue with Rebel News journalist Avi Yemini.
